Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires proper torque specifications for the M20*1.5 self-locking axle nut and M10*1.5 inboard bolts. Use an Allen wrench for the inboard bolt heads and a hex socket for the axle nut. Ensure the neoprene boot is seated correctly to prevent contamination. Verify the 6-bolt pattern on the inboard joint matches the vehicle’s flange. It is recommended to inspect related suspension and driveline components during installation.
